A tissue engineering meniscal composite scaffold ( 100 ) and a preparation method thereof. The meniscal composite scaffold ( 100 ) includes: a scaffold ( 110 ), wherein the scaffold ( 110 ) is C-shaped and has a shape which is consistent with the original shape of the meniscus to be regenerated, the scaffold ( 110 ) comprises a plurality of first degradable polymer fibers ( 111 ) extending along the circumferential direction of the scaffold ( 110 ) and a plurality of second degradable polymer fibers ( 112 ) extending along the radial direction of the scaffold ( 110 ), and the first degradable polymer fibers ( 111 ) form a multilayer intersection with the second degradable polymer fibers ( 112 ) and thereby generating a frame structure having a plurality of first apertures; and a matrix material ( 120 ) composited inside the plurality of first apertures of the scaffold ( 110 ) to form a meniscal composite scaffold ( 100 ) having a plurality of second apertures. |
